Every time I see that little Shiba Inu meme coin test a major support level twice and refuse to break, I get the same tingly feeling I had back in 2021. Dogecoin is doing it again right now—bouncing off roughly $0.15 like it’s got something to prove. And honestly? The chart is starting to look delicious for anyone who loves a good reversal story.
Let me be straight with you: the entire crypto market has been messy lately. Bitcoin dipped under $90k, Ethereum lost $3,000 faster than most of us could blink, and the meme sector got absolutely hammered. Yet here’s DOGE, down “only” about 5% on the day while everything else bleeds harder. That relative strength alone deserves attention.
The Double Bottom Everyone Is Whispering About
If you’ve traded more than five minutes in crypto, you know the double bottom pattern is one of the most reliable reversal signals out there—especially when it forms at a historical support zone. Dogecoin just printed two almost identical lows around $0.14–$0.15 over the past couple of weeks. The second touch came with a quick sweep of liquidity, a classic “bear trap,” and then price ripped straight back above the range.
I pulled up the daily chart last night and actually laughed out loud. It looks exactly like the setup we had in early 2021 before DOGE ran from eight cents to seventy-plus cents. Same rounded bottoms, same higher low on the RSI, same volume spike on the recovery candle. History doesn’t repeat, but man, it sure rhymes.
Why $0.14–$0.15 Matters More Than You Think
This isn’t some random Fibonacci level I pulled out of thin air. The $0.14–$0.15 zone is stacked with history:
- Former all-time high resistance from the 2021 bull run that flipped to support
- High-volume node from the May–June 2024 consolidation
- Psychological round number that retail loves to defend
- 78.6% retracement of the entire move from the June 2024 low
When price respects a level that has this much confluence, smart money pays attention. The fact that buyers stepped in aggressively both times we touched it tells me the big players are accumulating, not distributing.
Volume Profile Confirms the Shift
One of my favorite tools lately has been fixed-range volume profile, and DOGE is screaming “re-accumulation.” The point of control (POC) from the last major range sits right around $0.18–$0.19. That’s the “fair value” area the market keeps gravitating toward. Every time price dips below and snaps back, it’s like the market is saying, “Nope, too cheap.”
Right now we’re testing the Value Area Low (VAL) of that range. Reclaiming it on decent volume would be the official green light for bulls. Lose it convincingly? Well, then we’re probably grinding lower toward $0.10–$0.11. But everything I’m seeing—order flow, spot CVD, funding rates—points to buyers being in control at these levels.
“The best reversals don’t happen with euphoria—they happen when everyone has given up and the chart looks boring. That’s exactly where Dogecoin is right now.”

What Needs to Happen for Confirmation
Look, I’m excited, but I’m not married to the bullish outcome. Charts break all the time. For me to get aggressively long, I need to see three things:
- A daily close back above the Value Area Low (~$0.17)
- Increasing spot demand (watch Binance/Bitfinex order books)
- Bitcoin stabilizing or at least slowing its bleed
If those boxes get checked, the measured move on a confirmed double bottom takes us to roughly $0.26–$0.28. That’s almost a 100% move from current levels. Not bad for the “joke” coin, right?
Potential Targets If Bulls Take Control
Let’s play the upside scenario for a minute because it’s fun:
- First target: $0.20 psychological barrier and previous local high
- Second target: $0.26 equality move from the pattern + POC retest
- Stretch target: $0.35–$0.40 if we get full-blown altseason mania again
Yes, $0.35 would put Dogecoin’s market cap north of $50 billion. Crazy? Maybe. Impossible? History says no.
The Bear Case (Because Balance Matters)
I’d be doing you a disservice if I only pumped sunshine. If Bitcoin cracks $80k and stays there, everything gets dragged lower—DOGE included. A weekly close under $0.13 would invalidate the entire double bottom structure and open the door to $0.10 or worse.
Also worth watching: perpetual futures funding rates are still mildly positive. That means there’s still leverage in the system. A cascade of long liquidations could absolutely ruin the setup. Risk management isn’t optional here.
Bigger Picture: Meme Coins vs. the Market
Here’s something I’ve noticed over multiple cycles: when Bitcoin corrects hard but meme coins hold up relatively well, it’s often a sign that risk appetite is still alive under the surface. Think of it like the casino still being packed even when the stock market is crashing—retail money hasn’t left crypto yet.
Dogecoin leading the meme pack right now isn’t an accident. It’s the grandfather of the sector, the one with the most liquidity, the deepest order books, and—let’s be honest—the strongest brand recognition. If DOGE breaks out while PEPE, WIF, and BONK are still bleeding, that rotation could be vicious to the upside.
My Personal Take (And Yes, I Have a Position)
Full transparency: I started scaling into spot DOGE around $0.145 and added more on yesterday’s sweep. My average is roughly $0.152. Stop loss under $0.135, first target $0.22. That’s not financial advice—just what I’m comfortable risking based on the current structure.
Why am I willing to stick my neck out? Because the risk/reward here is absurd. Worst case, I lose about 12%. Best case, I’m looking at 100–200% if this pattern plays out like the last two times. Those are odds I’ll take all day.
Final Thoughts
Dogecoin at $0.15 with a developing double bottom isn’t just another dip—it feels like one of those quiet moments before the crowd realizes what’s happening. The setup is there, the liquidity is there, and the history is definitely there.
Will it play out perfectly? Of course not. Nothing in this market ever does. But as of November 19, 2025, the probabilities are tilting in favor of the bulls. Keep your eyes on that $0.17 level. If we clear it with conviction, the next few weeks could get very, very interesting.
Stay safe out there, manage your risk, and maybe—just maybe—keep a little powder dry for the dog coin that refuses to die.
